Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and line a 12-cup muffin tin with paper liners or lightly grease it with coconut oil.
In a small bowl, prepare the flaxseed egg by mixing the ground flaxseed with water. Let it sit for 5-10 minutes until it forms a gel-like consistency.
In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, granulated sugar, baking powder, baking soda, and salt.
In a separate medium bowl, combine the almond milk, sourdough discard, melted coconut oil, vanilla extract, and the prepared flaxseed egg. Mix until well incorporated.
Gradually add the wet ingredients to the dry ingredients, stirring gently until just combined. Do not overmix; it's okay if there are a few small lumps.
Carefully fold in the blueberries, ensuring they are evenly distributed throughout the batter.
Evenly divide the batter among the prepared muffin cups, filling each cup about 3/4 full.
Bake for 20-25 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center of a muffin comes out clean.
Remove the muffins from the oven and let them cool in the muffin tin for 5 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
Serve and enjoy your vegan sourdough blueberry muffins!
